Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the Council's deemed decision to refuse to grant a certificate of lawful development was well founded

What decided it

The containers were ancillary to an unlawful use and therefore not immune from enforcement action under the Murfitt principle, regardless of whether they had acquired permanence as buildings.
